Does this bag give enough support for the machine while traveling? Does it have protective straps to keep in place?

The bag supports my 24 lb metal machine. The bag is suitable for car travel,not for shipping. No additional straps on the inside. A lighter machine may need to be anchored.

I use a support bar and would recommend using one. This is not a hard cover bag.

Yes it does. Not great for traveling do to weight. I live the bag, but I would not travel with it due to bring heavy

Yes, there is extra padding on the bottom of this bag for protection of items inside. There are hard partitions, inside the bag, that can be moved for different sized items. All in all it's a good bag and I have no complaints about it!

Yes it does, but it's pretty thin. Should be good enough if you don't throw your bag around carelessly.

Yes. The bottom of the backpack is well cushioned as is the rest of the compartment where your PC is stored, with the possible exception of the very top of the compartment on the inside of the bag. It seems and feels very secure. You shouldn't have anything to worry about.

No, if you are looking for a lightweight bag. Look elsewhere. I love this bag, but because I carry several thousand dollars worth of the electronics for work travel. It keeps my stuff safe, but it is NOT light.

Yes it does. There are two separators that can be removed or positioned however you like. Also, (bonus info) there is a zippered area on the bottom that contains a water resistant wrap for the bottom of the bag that protects it from dirt and wet grounding and adds cushioning to the bottom of the bag when stored.. Hope this helps!

Well it has the stopper in the front to keep it from doing that. It seems to be ok with just that. Although I'm sure any bag is prone to behave badly if it doesn't want to do something.

The laptop area does have padding all around. I frequently ridden the bus with my laptop in it and no problems. I have flown on Southwest and American with the bag and have had no problems as it does fit under the seet and in the overhead with few problems but have never flown dela with it.

It comes with a detachable/adjustable shoulder strap that helps carry it if you choose not to hold it by the handles. I suppose that shoulder strap could be used to secure it around luggage as well although I've never used it that way.

It is pretty well padded, but it would not hurt to put it in a sleeve. I don't think it is necessary though. I really like this bag. It is a good bag, for traveling on a business trip for a few days. It makes a great carry on.

The bag does not offer much in the way of protection, but it works as a backpack nicely. If you are wearing it on your back then it's safe from damage, but I would strap it on to anything.

Yes, it does. It velcros to the bag when you aren't using as that. To be honest, I don't think I have ever used it though. It is very comfortable to carry, even when carrying a 17" laptop and an iPad in the bag.

Yes there are straps on the front and rear of the bag. They are not as wide as the ones on the side but they should do the job.

I use it for taking my laptop through security and on the plane, and haven't had any damage done to my laptop. I actually find that it's easier to take that laptop out of this bag than it was to take it out of my over-the-shoulder computer bag. I would take care to not throw the bag down on a hard surface (or the floor) if you're setting it down upright, as the bottom of the bag doesn't have any cushion. The back and the front are pretty well padded, but not the base.

Yes, I put my backpack in it with a bungee cord on top when I commute to work. Just make sure you secure the velcro strap or it will fall off!
